Live Your Best Life!

With 20 years as a Certified Vet Technician, I'm an expert in small animal/urgent care, and emergency medicine. I understand the frustration of undesirable dog behavior and the difficulty of finding trustworthy resources. I review your dog's health history to assess if issues are medical, behavioral, or both. Collaborating with your veterinary team, I provide ongoing support, especially when using behavior-modifying medications or supplements. You'll learn about all your options and we'll create a tailored behavior modification plan. I emphasize preventative care to address concerns early.

What to expect

Consultation

The 90-120-minute consultation is utilized to address the pet guardian's behavioral concerns and answer questions. Education of canine body language, direction for environmental management strategies, and a full report to the veterinary care team and pet guardian will be provided after the consultation.

Sessions

Typically in your home

Training sessions are scheduled in 60 minute increments to address training plan goals, progress, and troubleshooting.​ Pet guardians will receive an after visit written training plan outlining environmental management goals, pet owner goals, and pet goals. These plans are updated after each consecutive training session to allow pet guardians to stay on track with training between sessions.

Positive Reinforcement

I strive to empower dog guardians to become their dog's strongest advocate through the education of recognizing, interpreting, and understanding canine body language. I believe in building safe and trusting relationships between clients and their dogs by utilizing humane and science-based training methods. I do NOT use or advocate for any type of coercion, intimidation, pain, or fear within daily interactions or training goals.
